The casting ruined it for me. My son Genius loved it when The Simpsons had &quot;The Shinning&quot; as part of a Halloween episode.<br /><br />*************<br />Chick,<br />As you can see above, I have several of the newer ones, but haven&#39;t cracked them open yet. I think The Stand is better than The Shining. But then again, I am fond of post-apocalyptic fiction. <br /><br />*************<br />Cathy C.<br />The part of Pet Sematary that made the hair on the back of my neck stand up was when Louis Creed woke up from what he thought was a dream, and HIS FEET WERE DIRTY AND COVERED WITH PINE NEEDLES!<br /><br />*************<br />Stephen,<br />Then maybe I should just read the first half. Or every other page.<br /><br />*************<br />Tammy,<br />I don&#39;t recall. My favorite quotes involve Tom Cullen. &quot;Laws, no! M O O N. That spells...&quot;<br /><br />*************<br />Leenie,<br />You&#39;d better make than an 11-month summer to get through The Stand.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-44153327583799894.post-62200670962695449832012-07-02T11:59:47.574-05:002012-07-02T11:59:47.574-05:00ANOTHER one I&#39;ll have to put on my list.

Was the line, &quot;One step and then the next gets you where you&#39;re going&quot; from that book?

(Just about everything I read impacts me as a writing teacher, so I get a teacher&#39;s discount on most of the books I buy. It was in the &quot;bargain&quot; section right by the front door, in the little alcove/lobby. It&#39;s a collection of novellas, a la &quot;Different Seasons,&quot; and I&#39;m looking forward to reading it.<br /><br />&quot;Delores Claiborne&quot;--one of my favorites, along with &quot;Misery&quot; and &quot;The Shining.&quot; One of these days, a great movie will be made of &quot;The Shining.&quot;Siouxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17924021828536277618noreply@blogger.com
